Luka Doncic recorded his second-straight triple-double in the victory.
On Saturday night, Dallas kept their good fortunes rolling behind a monster performance from their superstar point guard, Luka Doncic. He finished with 30 points, 13 rebounds, 11 assists, and four steals as the Mavericks topped the Toronto Raptors, 125-118, at Scotiabank Arena in Ontario, Canada – it was his second-straight triple-double recorded, indicating that he is rounding into midseason form after injuries derailed the beginning of his campaign.
Kyrie Irving added 29 points, six rebounds, and four assists on 9-for-14 shooting, while Klay Thompson poured in 20 points on 8-for-16, finding his groove again after a couple of rough shooting nights in his last few games. Overall, the offense was clicking as the Mavericks shot 46.9% from the field overall and 37.8% from three.
With the loss, the Raptors fall to 7-17 on the season, which puts them in 12th place in the Eastern Conference above just Philadelphia, Charlotte, and Washington; Dallas, meanwhile, continues to climb the Western Conference ranks with their 16-8 record, placing them second behind just the Oklahoma City Thunder.
